National Association Of Government Communicators

National Association Of Government Communicators Management - HQ Division, doing business as Nagc, is a Minneapolis-based tax-exempt nonprofit organization that operates as a federal grant sub-recipient and holds minimal prime contract exposure, with nine total awards (five prime, four sub) carrying combined potential value of $10 thousand but combined obligated dollars of $1.3 million — a disparity reflecting the vendor's role as a pass-through recipient of federal funding for child-care administration and development work rather than as a service provider competing on government-wide or agency vehicles.

Nagc's customer base concentrates on two federal agencies: the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (four awards) and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service R8-Southern Region (two awards, $8 thousand combined potential value), accounting for 67% of award count. The HHS-ACF awards are all sub-grant entries stemming from the Minnesota Department of Human Services as the prime grantee, structured around Child Care Admin & Dev COVID programming with annual issuance cycles in July 2022, 2023, and 2024, plus one February 2022 award. The Forest Service R8-Southern Region awards consist of a $4,165 membership renewal purchase order issued in January 2022 with ultimate completion in January 2023.

Activity is minimal and episodic: one award in 2020, three in 2022, one each in 2023 and 2024, with no awards in 2021 or 2025 year-to-date. The vendor's award taxonomy clusters around civic and social organizations, professional organizations, educational support services, and administrative support services — NAICS and PSC codes reflecting Nagc's identity as a membership and professional-development organization channeling federal grant dollars for child-care capacity-building rather than as a contractor delivering IT, communications, or operational services. No parent vehicles, set-asides, or subcontractor relationships are present in the source data. The combined obligated-value figure ($1.3 million) significantly exceeds potential value, suggesting historical awards in the source data carried higher dollar obligations than their recorded ceilings; this discrepancy is consistent with multi-year grant sub-awards whose annual tranches exceed their initial ceiling recording.
